Urartian inscriptions

Urartian inscriptions are ancient writings from the Urartian civilization, which thrived around 800-600 BCE in what is now eastern Turkey and surrounding regions. These inscriptions are typically carved on stone monuments, reliefs, and fortress walls, and they record royal achievements, history, religious beliefs, and building projects. Written in the Urartian language using cuneiform script, these texts provide valuable insights into the society, governance, and culture of the Urartians. They are essential for understanding the history of the ancient Near East and the development of early civilizations in that area.
